    mac80211: fix MU-MIMO follow-MAC mode · 87cfeaa5

     upstream.
    
    There are two bugs in the follow-MAC code:
     * it treats the radiotap header as the 802.11 header
       (therefore it can't possibly work)
     * it doesn't verify that the skb data it accesses is actually
       present in the header, which is mitigated by the first point
    
    Fix this by moving all of this out into a separate function.
    This function copies the data it needs using skb_copy_bits()
    to make sure it can be accessed if it's paged, and offsets
    that by the possibly present vendor radiotap header.
    
    This also makes all those conditions more readable.
